In 1925 Colonel P. H. Fawcett embarked on a journey into a dangerous and largely unexplored region of Brazil in search of a fabled lost city and was never seen again. Journalist Peter Fleming's interest in Fawcett's disappearance led him to answer an advertisement to join an expedition to explore the rivers of Brazil with the aim of ascertaining the explorer's fate. Though Colonel Fawcett's disappearance remains a mystery to this day, Peter Fleming's wild adventure in the jungles of Brazil is recognized as one of the 20th century's best-loved travel classics.

The Kisoji, which runs through the Kiso Valley in the Japanese Alps, has been in use since at least 701 CE. In the 17th century, it was the route that the daimyo (warlords) used for their biennial trips - along with their samurai and porters - to the new capital of Edo (now Tokyo).

James Brabazon is narrating this story of war, violence, and political intrigue. He wanted a war. And, for his sins, he got one. James Brabazon was an ambitious young war reporter when he entered the chaos of the Liberian Civil War in 2002. Running with the infamous LURD rebels, he survived numerous deadly ambushes, the privations of dysentery and a dramatic two hundred-mile escape from Government troops through dense equatorial jungle. He even had a bounty put on his head.

Livingstone's first book revolutionized the way European readers saw Africa and made him a hero in England. He returned again to the Zambesi with his brother Charles and others, this time with more equipment and funds. Again he faced hippopotami, crocodiles, impossible terrain, and disease, but his greatest enemies on this trip prove to be human. The British eventually lost faith in the expedition, but Livingstone proved in the end to have had tremendous foresight.

In the autumn of 1988, Michael Palin set out from the Reform Club with an ambitious plan: to circumnavigate the world, following the route taken by Jules Verne's fictional hero Phileas Fogg 115 years earlier. The rules were simple. He had to make the journey in 80 days using only forms of transport that would have been available to Fogg.

In the late 1970s Ondaatje returned to his native island of Sri Lanka.

An inspired travel narrative and family memoir by an exceptional writer.

He travels by river-boat, float-plane and foot to visit tribes deep in the jungle, samples life in the agricultural and mining heartland of Brazil, experiences the modernism of Brasília and the heady mix of Rio de Janeiro, and ventures into the favelas.

A partir del siglo XVIII Italia y Grecia se convirtieron en lugares de culto y peregrinación obligada de los aristócratas jóvenes, cuya educación se consideraba incompleta hasta visitar la cuna de la cultura occidental para contemplar in situ algunos de sus mayores logros.

Fiel al dicho de Kazantzakis según el cual «el buen viajero crea el país por el que viaja», María Belmonte concibe y recrea Macedonia, en el norte de Grecia, que de su mano se nos va revelando como una tierra melancólica y misteriosa, tan exuberante, sin embargo, como la Grecia solar, y llena de rincones capaces de deparar momentos de auténtica exultación.

Acompañada de Aristóteles, Goethe, Victor Hugo, Darwin, Jane Austen y tantos otros escritores, pintores o aventureros, la autora nos invita a realizar una travesía por la costa vasca.

Catching all the fascination and humour of travel in out-of-the-way places, One's Company is Peter Fleming's account of his journey through Russia and Manchuria to China when he was Special Correspondent to The Times in the 1930s. Fleming spent seven months with the "object of investigating the Communist situation in South China" at a time when, as far as he knew, "no previous journey had been made to the anti-communist front by a foreigner", and on its publication in 1934, One's Company won widespread critical acclaim.

À l'issue de dix années passées en France, notre Yankee parisien est retourné chez lui, dans l'Ohio, et nous livre ses impressions sur une Amérique qu'il ne reconnaît plus.

Was ist das für ein Land, in dem so unaussprechliche Namen wie Llywyngwril auf den Ortsschildern stehen? Wo Kekse gereicht werden, die jedes Gebiss bedrohen? Von den Kalkfelsen Dovers bis ins raue schottische Thurso erkundet Bryson die eigentümliche Welt jenseits des Ärmelkanals und kommt zu dem Schluss: England muss man einfach lieben, ganz gleich, wie wunderlich es einem zuweilen erscheinen mag.

Ted Stanger frappe encore ! "Le plus français des Américains" jette cette fois son regard moqueur sur le monde des fonctionnaires et... des administrés. Ressortissant d'un pays où même la carte d'identité n'existe pas, il brosse le tableau à la fois drôle, ironique et impertinent de notre système administratif et de ses cinq millions d'agents.
